How to Remove the Front Turn Signal Bulb

Like the title states, how do we do this?

Is this a request post or is there an actual guide coming...?

This is what the owner's manual says about it. Did your blinker already burn out? Your dealer may replace it under warranty.

Did this end up working?? What year is your 128 because I'm seeing some videos and instructions stating to remove the headlight cover and go from there but I had to replace a headlight bulb today and could not feel or see any bulb housing for the turn signal to be removed and I'm a bit puzzled because if you do have to go from the wheel well then how would you even get the headlight cover off or do you take it off first then go in from the wheel well for convenience?
